Zingy Chicken Salad With Sour Cream - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups chicken breasts, cooked and diced (poached or baked, we prefer poached because it is moister)
1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery
1 small onion (finely minced, we prefer a sweeter onion, like Vidalia)
1 1/2 tablespoons horseradish, prepared (zing is proportionate to horseradish, so adjust at will)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon mustard, spicy
1 tablespoon tarragon (dried, or fresh tarragon to taste)
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)

Preparation

Mix together sour cream, mayonnaise, mustard and horseradish.
Stir in chicken, celery, onion, tarragon, salt and pepper.
Allow at least a few hours \"meld\" time in the refrigerator. It improves the flavor dramatically. * I've counted the minimum meld time as cook time *.
Serve on greens or use for sandwiches. This zingy salad stands up particularly well to strong flavored breads, like dark pumpernickel.
